Daniel spoke with a landlord who's interested in supporting the project.

Jeremy spoke at SF New Tech on Monday! We should hack more startup events!

Marc's been testing the cheap TP-Link routers and made a firmware image (minimal OpenWRT) that's a tarball that can be unzipped right onto the router. Unfortunately, the cheapest ones are not approved by the FCC. However, he found a bunch of better routers (eg; Western Digital) for around $27 (plus a USB stick would be ~$35)

https://github.com/richo/groundstation - Project used by Byzantium folks. From The Doctor: "It is a distributed Twitter work-alike that uses Git for its back-end and a lightweight gossip protocol to synchronize other instances on the network. It presents a regular HTTP front end (which is easily proxyable through Apache to add SSL/TLS for data-in-motion protection) and does not require that users create accounts to use it. Communication channels are set up on the server side, and users can interact with (read, post, comment) with them from the client side."
